Callahan's Virtual Roundtable:
Empowering Purpose
Thursday, June 18 | 2:00 PM ET

Every Strong Organization Starts With Purpose


Just like every house needs a solid foundation, every organization needs a clear, compelling purpose. But truly living that purpose — every day, in every decision — requires more than good intentions. It takes courageous conversations, creative thinking, and a community of peers willing to challenge the status quo.

That’s where the Purpose Virtual Roundtable comes in. Hosted by Callahan & Associates, this unique session is designed to reignite your commitment to purpose, share real-world stories of purpose in action, and help your organization advance along its own purpose journey — wherever you’re starting from.




Why Join This Roundtable?


As a leader, your time is valuable — and so is your perspective. In this 60- to 90-minute virtual session, you’ll connect with peers who are facing similar challenges and pushing toward similar goals. This isn’t a passive webinar; it’s a peer-driven exchange. Come ready to participate, listen deeply, and share honestly. (And yes, we do ask that everyone appears on camera — the magic is in the faces, not the slides.)

You’ll walk away with:
  • Practical ideas for aligning purpose with operations, culture, and strategy
  • Inspiration from how others are tackling sustainability, inclusion, and impact
  • A stronger network of purpose-led peers

*Our roundtables are open to those with a subscription that contains roundtable access, and over 200m in assets.

Keep Collaboration Going

Join us at our upcoming Foundations Roundtable in Nashville June 12!


There’s no substitute for the impactful discussions and inspiration that happen when like-minded leaders gather with a shared purpose. Our in-person roundtable events expand on virtual discussions by offering a full day for deeper conversations about the industry. Combined with an introductory happy hour and dinner the night before, attendees return to their organizations with invaluable insights and connections they can’t find elsewhere.

What Makes This Conversation Different?


There are no decks. No monologues. Just a lightly facilitated, deeply meaningful conversation. It’s not about where you should be on your purpose journey — it’s about where you are, and where you want to go.

To help you reflect before we gather, here are a few prompts to consider:
  • Where is your credit union on its purpose journey? Where do you want to be?
  • What actions have been most successful in empowering employees to live your purpose?
  • Members who are fully engaged advance your purpose organically. How are you measuring member engagement today?
  • What’s the most meaningful lesson you’ve learned about purpose-driven leadership?
  • How have you leveraged your broader communities to align your purpose with their unique needs?


Who Should Attend?


This conversation is ideal for leaders shaping and activating their credit union’s purpose — whether through strategic planning, culture-building, DEIB initiatives, or community impact. Typical titles include CEO, Head of Strategy, Chief People or Culture Officer, and DEI Leaders — but if you're helping guide your organization’s purpose journey, we want you in the room.


Space is limited. To create a meaningful, personal experience, we ask that only one person per credit union register for this roundtable.
